Please add a compass calibration feature to the app. Drone deploy flight app has an option to calibrate the compass before flight. Something like that would be nice to have in the sitescan app. There has been several occasions where I have planned a flight and was ready to take off, only to have the Sitescan app tell me the compass needs to be calibrated. I use a DJI Phantom 4 RTK but adding coverage for all supported drones would be beneficial.

I have exactly the same issue, same drone, and I strongly support this idea. I have to revert to the DJI GS Pro app to fix this.

While you are at it, support for calibrating the IMU would also be very, very handy.

One alternative you can try is to rapidly cycle the flight mode switch on your controller (P-A-F, on the upper left)  to initiate compass calibration without any app. The back lights on the drone should turn solid yellow and then you can perform your compass calibration as usual.
